No.
Process
Explanation
1.
Stay
• Electrical power is supplied
• W
asher is ready to work and the micom is in the active mode.
2.
Water
supply
•
After loading laundry and selecting a course and a cycle, water is
supplied and drum rotates.
•
When a user selects Pre-wash course, water is supplied through pre
wash valve.
3.
Soaking
& washing
laundry
• T
o get laundry wet, drum rotates clockwise and counterclockwise.
•
If water amount is insufficient at this time, the Inlet valve will supply
water again.
4.
W
ashing
• Fuzzy Logic decides washing time according to the laundry load, water
temperature, and other factors.
5.
Drainage
• A pump motor drains the water from the drum.
• After sensing drained water amount by water level frequency, spin starts.
•
When a course is selected, stay cooling process is performed to
decrease the water temperature gradually to prevent laundry from being
damaged and for safety reasons.
6.
Untangling
(Sensing
eccent-
ricity)
•
It balances laundry load and senses the eccentricity of the load, to only
allow spinning without vibration
•
If the eccentricity is worse than the allowed level, it repeats the
disentangling process. When the repeated time is more than allowed
level, it displays UE.
•
If the eccentricity is good, the intermittent spin starts.
•
During this process, the drain pump works for drainage intermittently.
